Tim Abbott 7d64bd51f5 provision: Don't install recursive pip dependencies.

being in requirements.txt.

Tim Abbott 3c74bf000f provision: Add installing recent npm to provisioning process.

environments was too old.

Tim Abbott 52fc1c71bc provision: Rewrite using subprocess module instead of sh.
The `with sh.sudo` pattern that we were using in python-sh was
deprecated, and emperically hangs on Ubuntu xenial.  Since in general
the use of python-sh/python-pbs caused trouble (requiring extra
dependencies, confusing syntax), this just removes it.

We replace it with a new zulip_tools.py library function that echoes
the command line and streams the output.

We do the same to install-phantomjs so we can remove that dependency.

Tim Abbott 10777c85d4 Move `npm install` to end of development installation process.
This should make it easier for users to recover from failed `npm
install` commands when setting up their environment.

Luke Faraone 1b4d8542a0 Minor edit to non-Python dependency description 2016-03-21 03:51:50 +00:00
Luke Faraone d93a2bcf11 Reformat README.*.md to 70 characters uniformly.
There are some stragglers, but this is better than the previous SOTW
where line length was all over the place.
